@oak0y don't worry, they've recreated a sort of auroch, so now you're safe! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auroch#Re-creation) In any case, beef and aurochs are made of the same stuff, just in different quantities, so just remove/add fat, if you so wish.

no, wild animals are not more lean, except in certain seasons. look at kurt harris' recent posts. good hunters do not kill skinny animals.
also, eat elk or bison or wild boar if you want non-domesticated animal foods. you will pay more though due to lack of supply in this country.

You don't really have much of a choice. If you're not gonna eat meat from farm animals because they've been artificially selected, what exactly are you gonna do?

I mean, if you can get all your meat by hunting wild game, that sounds like it would be pretty awesome. But until then, you're stuck with the farm animals like cows.

(Plus there's nothing inherently wrong with artificial selection. Perhaps the selection pressure was for food that was easier to digest and work with or something. Or on the other hand, maybe it was for food that pleased our taste buds more at the expense of our long-term health. I have no idea which one it is. And anyway, perhaps we've done some evolving ourselves since the paleolithic era.)
